Doctor Merrill Krolick: The Cardiologist Who Saved My Life

In the darkest hour, when hope was thin,
A healer appeared, with wisdom within.
Doctor Krolick, with steady hand,
Guided my heart to a safer land.

The beat was faint, the pulse unsure,
Yet you found a way to make it endure.
With eyes that see beyond the pain,
You stitched together life's fragile chain.

A guardian of hearts, both weak and strong,
In your care, I found where I belong.
You turned the tide, you gave me breath,
Wrestling my life from the jaws of death.

Doctor Merrill Krolick, forever in my soul,
The one who made my shattered heart whole.
